EXTRACT

Chinese artist Killion Huang felt acutely aware of his solitude after moving into a new studio space. There, he started to think about how being alone can shake one’s sense of identity. His latest paintings, shown in “Reflections” at EDJI Gallery, channel these moments of self-awareness and introspection into vulnerable snapshots of everyday life in domestic settings.


Among the standout works are Dayfall (all works 2024), depicting a pensive subject looking off into space against a curtained window, and The Goldfish, where a lone figure contemplates their reflected image in a wardrobe. Both use the mirror to symbolize self-perception. Huang’s simmering reds accent the dull pastel palette of these vulnerable scenes, and his gentle brushwork renders his subjects—standing in their bedrooms, gazing longingly, or lost in thought—with a tender touch.


Born in 1999 in Hangzhou, China, Huang graduated from New York’s School of Visual Arts in 2022. He presented his first solo exhibition at EDJI Gallery in November 2023.
